Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year!
This fall will start my eighth year at Vandegrift. I will be teaching Business Management and Intro to Marketing. I am beyond excited to start another year at VHS!
I graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Marketing. After college, I moved to Washington, D.C. where I started out working in membership & recruitment for the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). I moved on to hold multiple roles within the organization from recruitment coordinator to finance liaison. After 4 years in D.C., I moved to Rome, Italy where I taught English test prep courses to high school students, college students, and young professionals. In addition to teaching in Italy, I got to spend a lot of time traveling through Europe!
After a year in Italy, I made my way back to Texas. While earning my teaching certification I worked in career services and then in advising at the University of Texas at Austin in the Economics Department.
I am currently in graduate school to get my Masters in Professional School Counseling. I will be graduating in December and eventually hope to become a school counselor.
I've had a wide range of experience in the business world and beyond, but I can say for sure that there is no better fit for me than to be working with students in education. I love what I do and am honored to be here at Vandegrift. I am looking forward to another wonderful school year!
